Glad you didn’t do any takeaways for the players. It would just be beating a dead horse.
The fact that we were playing against 10 men and still being outplayed by Roma should be evidence enough that the coach is the biggest problem with this team.
The man is not a good tournament boss. If you put the entire resume at Milan on the table he’s been a success, but there’s a ceiling with Pioli. He achieves good league results. But we won’t win the most important matches because they require sharp tactical game plans. And those tactics are not there with Pioli.
It’s always the same for Milan. The front 3 have little to no opportunities to effect the game because the midfield and back-4 aren’t connected to the attack. It’s fragmented.
It’s why you see at times some great play from the attack and then you’ll see long stretches of lack of goals. It’s not the front 3-4 players. It’s the ones behind them that aren’t controlling the game and supplying them with good opportunities!
The only times it works is when adli is in his best form….
Ditto! Been seeing that all season.
The harsh truth is, Pioli can not beat top teams. He can not beat top coaches. The harsh truth is, Pioli is a mid-level manager AT BEST. The harsh truth is, Milan will never win another piece of silverware as long as Pioli is our manager. We're either serious about being a top team that compete for trophies, or we're not. We'll know which we are when ownership finally decides to either fire Pioli or retain him.
Well said this how ac fans feel
@@sunnyd6291 wtf are "ac fans"? do you call barca fans "fc fans"?
He's not evolved much he is outdated.
I want Thiago Motta to come to Milan so badly. He has revolutionized Bologna and guided them to a top 4 finish, despite them having worse players. Imagine what he could do with Milan. It’s too bad that it looks like he’s going to Juve.
I was impressed with him also while watching the game earlier in the season. His team defense is solid and always seems to play games where the scores are low. Always in the game when you can do that. ACM needs that because scoring goals was not the bigger issue.
After watching your take on last couple of years it seems to me Pioli has just done what he was brought in initially for, steady the ship, the title won was a result of bringing the most out of a team which was still in construction but had quite a lot of talent and a massive luck factor, the combo of Theo and Leao burst into the scene and Serie A couldn't handle it combined with first proper season by Giroud along with Tomori Kalulu partnership which never got to develop further due to injuries. Since then there have been no fresh ideas, others adjusted to our strengths and we had no answer, Pioli will definitely ensure that we compete on all fronts every season, he will ensure we are present but he can never win us a trophy because for that you need moment of brilliance in individual matches, especially the ones that knock you out of the competitions, you need some out of the box thinking for that one particular match. The players yesterday simply looked uninspired, we needed Pioli to also develop with the rest of the team but it seems he has failed to evolve, the job has outgrown him.
Full credit to Roma. Unfortunately, Pioli's time is coming to an end. Thank you for everything, but I think his credit has run out. Brilliant video, as always ⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽
So why only blame the coach? The management bares no responsibility?
@@paradox104 they do too...but I think after Tonali and Zlatan's departures, and many new players signed, maybe they wanted to keep Pioli to have some stability. At the end of the day, there's a portion of blame on everyone, but now Pioli's been given a fair chance, and unfortunately he didn't take full advantage of it.
Spot on Kush, Spot on. We have to thank pioli for the scudetto, but he can't take us to the next level. I have been supporting milan for about 25 years, so I truly understand the grandeur of this club. I don't know what club mina supports, but unless she supports real madrid she doesn't understand what milan fans demand from a club with 7 champions league titles and 19 scudetti. I agree that 4 years ago coming out of the banter era we had to have very low expectations, however 7 years of banter era don't erase 124 years of history and suddenly transform us into Bologna. We are AC F***ing Milan and we demand more!!! its as simple as that.
So demand more who Will we blame when same shit happens next year when we Will start blame cardinale
@@ludaglava_girouda Maybe, because in fact we have to change to another coach, if Milan doesn´t choose the right manager, and we get bad results you have make people accountable for such decisions too. However, if you never change Pioli, you are sending the message that you don´t want to win trophies, and that reaching a ´good position´ is enough for them, and I truly don´t want that. I want to see Milan competing.
Ngl, i was curious to see how you would do this. And tbh i was thinking the same thing. The whole squad gets blamed. No boxes just an overrall shitshow on everyone and the coach. Respect.
Our team is not organized. There's no sense of spacing and timing between our players. There's no clear plan. We are barely the sum of our parts. Pioli has to go.
Your player are tired.
Defense needs to be improved. Our history has had some great defenders, yet in our present, we have absolute disasterclass for defense.
*some of the greatest defenders
@@doncarloancelotti2256 yes brother😁
That is spot on the problem...DEFENCE. Pioli did just good, but without injuries & a solid defense, you are not going to win the big matches where wins are decided by 1 goal, excellent teamwork, character & DEFENCE!
@@rolandovivar6864 indeed, the defence and the teamwork have both been in shambles. I hope they bring in Antonio Conte and yeah kinda bring in good defenders in the upcoming transfer window. ( They missed on Dragusin tho, he'd have suited well to us)
Maldini being fired was the biggest loss to the team. No mentality anymore… constant beat downs
Bullcrap, we had many disaster matches like this when Maldini was here too
@@lucs028what are u even saying? 😂. Maldini was the one who revived this club and brought those players. Gerry cardinale messed it up thinking he is the football expert.
Maldini got fired because he wanted to fire Pioli 😂
Now Maldini did some mistakes too, but the problem lies in Gerry Cardinale and Eliot not wanting to spend any money on the team
The disasterclass from the defense was just disgusting...
Kush - much love from a milanista. Your content is always FRESH! 🔥
The way Poili has handled this job he is still a caretaker and has been for 5 years. Let's get a real coach now and proceed our developement
"he has to go blud"
Has to ong
Congrats to Atalanta
Congrats to BAYER LEVERKUSEN
Atalanta are not winning
@@andrewevalle3052never underestimate anyone
a serious and ambitious club after last year's 5th place (we finished behind Juve, only the penalty saved us), would have already eliminated Pioli because for 2 years Milan has been a disaster as soon as the level is raised. Decent coaches (even De Rossi who started yesterday in practice) have understood how to play against Milan: just don't allow counterattacks and avoid leaving the field to Leao and Tbeo, that's enough and Milan is finished. If Milan can't counterattack and can't play 1vs1s at speed, the team won't even tickle their opponents; Milan has no offensive schemes, they don't make triangles, they don't make one-twos, there are no insertions by the wingers to serve with holes, the Milan of the last 2 years is nothing from the point of view of the game, but against small teams have always been saved, (not always), thanks to individuals. Confusion reigns supreme in Milan, yesterday was just the re-presentation of something that has been clear to me for some time, then ok the defensive phase of Pioli's Milan is one of the worst I have ever seen since I watched Milan, actually to say the least truth be told, I struggle to find teams that defend worse than Milan. certainly there are teams that concede more goals, but because they have poorer players, but is it possible to find who defends worse? I do not know. However, don't make the mistake of placing all the blame on the mediocre Pioli, here the problems start from much higher up, starting from the ownership, which is only interested in speculating and making money, to move on to the company which is EMBARRASSING: Furlani Scaroni and Moncada are nothing, just think that in the whole season I have never seen a manager talking to the TVs after the match, and this is something for a third-rate team (they will pay dearly in the next few years for having kicked out the only one who cared about the club and the fans, so much so as to go against the owner, PAOLO MALDINI). And the worst is yet to come, because they will hire a coach who will perhaps be even more mediocre than Pioli, just look at the names being talked about. I don't see it well for the next few years.
Our game against a team like Sassuolo was a sign.
We struggle annoyingly. A better team will capitalize on the Red Card and produce quality result. But for us, we don't even notice the difference.
I saw that starting XII and had to get myself ready for no trophies this season
My biggest knock against Pioli is that he doesn't know how to change up things. Always plays the same players, they get tired/overused and finally get hurt. The other players never play and when they play they're under immense pressure to perform. When he rotates players it never works out and at halftime he#s got to sub in the regulars to save the day. Usually sticks to the same tactics even if they don't really work anymore and when he tries to change something he comes up with crazy stuff like yesterday.
Wait till the end of the season? No way. Pull him into the office, thank him for his service and say that it's over at the end of the season. Pioli will be fine, he'll get the job at Napoli. Lock down whoever you want to replce Pioli as soon as possible so you can get input on transfers.
Oh boy, just when you thought we couldn't regress any further, he still can't get it right...Monday is going to be brutal.
Finally kush is on board
Man I love your breakdowns, I feel you are always on point.
We could clearly see the confusion, and clueless in team movements for the last 30mins. If a coach couldn’t believe in the quality of the midfield and pick Musah, Bennacer over Adli , Reijnders, and playing Calabria at the midfield, how would we expect the rest of the team to have the right motivation and believes to keep fighting.
Our players were low in confidence, misunderstanding, being so predictable in movements pathetically.
It reflected on the field ( Mike couldn’t control simple ball, Theo made a the weirdest pass back to Florenzi all the way to the other wing while we needed to pass the ball forward, and Leao kept losing the ball miserable)
I couldn’t believe what I witnessed from a Milan performance at Europe competition levels.
It was so sad, really sad. 😔
the argument that milan only lost because they played horrible and roma aren’t that good is idiotic, roma made them play horrible
The world heavyweight match up Monday April 22nd Milan Italy *** A.C. Milan vs. Internazionale FC *** My gosh?!? Could this game come at a worse time. I honestly see Lautaro and Co. carve through the depressed Prozac required AC Milan line.
Welldone Kush.
That Napoli vs Milan UCL analysis is actually the perfect example of what Milan vs Roma UEL is this season.
Believing too much and losing to a weaker team.
New coach for sure
Even before the season I felt Pioli has to leave coz he is not the man to take Mila to next level
Motta, Naglesman, Conte, NEW MANAGER please.
I would have expected him to play Rafael Leao, GIROUD, Chukwueze. Then Pulisic as 10.
That experiment of RLC as a 10 was just lucky, and it kills the creativity of the no 10.
If you must play an Inverted Full back, why not do a 3 4 3 with Theo as LWB?
We have a Talented Squad but PIOLI is underutilizing them.
I've said this a Billion times, RLC is not a 10!!! Pioli keeps playing him as a 10! That guy is just dull minded!
Agree! I thought RLC & Tjders should have started in midfield, PC at the 10 to help control the center of the field with yhe midfielders. Roma was going sit back on counter anyways.
I miss Kalulu and Tomori's Partnership in our defense.
No please no...
Tomori is past his due date he is getting more and more error prone. He is still better than Gabbi though. A smart defender doesn't go fysical with big Romulu
@@moos7005 well, he remains our best defender for now.
First YOU FIRE A Man who loves this Club.(Maldini)
Bruhhh The Potential This Team is wasting With him is insane If We had A Better Coach, We Would be in the CL QF AT LEAST And YES WE WOULD Go through the Group of Death.
This team DESPERATELY needs a true DEFENSIVE midfielder, and multiple backline players who are FAR better than those they have.
Agree!!!
look at players under DDR and Jose. or someone like mkhitaryan under inzaghi. All these players are at 60-70% under bald fraud. Coaches matter the most unless you have 7+ world class players in your team. We NEED a striker and a right back and most importantly a football literate coach.
Any coach that gives us 5-1 loss to our biggest rivals, can't get past a 10 man Roma in the Europa league, and gets us knocked out of the UCL finals to our biggest rivals DOESNOT DESERVE TO STAY!
Maldini took the club to seria championship and championship league. Our defence suffered when maldini left
Good points and I don't think anyone can argue against the hindsight analysis of this coach, after his serie A win. There has been a regression in playing style, player quality and defending.
After seeing the first leg himself, he's still using the same attacking strategy. When I saw that, I knew we were set to lose the match. Loftus is struggling in his new role against big teams. His strengths would be better utilized in midfield where he can win balls and support our defense. I was hoping he would try the 4-2-3-1 formation that worked so well against Lecce, but his preference for Loftus as a CAM is clouding his judgment, preventing him from seeing other, possibly better, options; He often overlooks the fact that Loftus primary position is CDM & CM. Now, I'm curious about which formation he will choose against Inter.
Agree!
I did mention this months ago with regards to them facing the big guys and loosing.
Your spot on on Pioli but one thing we have to say he did his job he got us back to being a regular in the champions league and over achieving by winning that title. The truth is that his done well with the cards he’s been dealt. This ownership is not investing in the club because they are building a new stadium. As much as I hate it but we won’t win again till they finish with their project and then maybe they’ll start investing
Not Pioli, he’s a convenient scapegoat. Milan needs a CB, OB and DCM. Yes, I would like to see Rafa, CP, and Sam on the same attacking line and some of the roster selections are questionable, but we don’t have the squad to win trophies quite yet.
Agree
Kush, your opinion I have been waiting for after yesterday....Pioli had to go last December....I feel bad for him, but it will also do good for him to change and it will help us evolve and reach a new level.
Allowing a coach to bring in how many new players and then just fire him after a year is always going to be wild to me. If I was one of those new player cough pullisic and musah, I’m hitting the exit. Pull has seen this clown show before and it didn’t work when Chelsea did it.
Good point, but seems some fans expected better. Defense definitely needs work or better players. There is no Rudiger or KevinDB to defend or move the ball forward.
@@rolandovivar6864not a single lie there the defense is kinda holding them back especially CB. Nothing that an offseason can’t fix. Now I know they knew he had his issues but maybe this summer don’t sell your best players and bring some in then you’ll keep climbing the latter.
I don't fully agree with your takes on champions league or this season. But we definitely need a new coach.
You are right, in big games we consistently don't turn up. Tactically he's not evolved. What on earth were we doing today?
Only issue is who do we get to replace him? Who is available and realistic?
First time I'm with you on all this. For me, it's a shame because I *like* his attacking style, and I also think we wouldn't be having this conversation if Milan had used the January window to upgrade their defense. At a time when we were riddled with injuries they didn't get a single defender! You have to be a very special type of defender to play Pioli ball without shipping goals. We don't have them.
And for my own Puli-centric pov I'm bummed because this is probably the first time at club level for him that he really was simpatico with his coach. His year has been what it is partly because he was always better than he was given a chance to be. But even more is that his game has grown an enormous amount and I put that down to his relationship with Pioli. He'll take it hard. Seriously... he's never *had* a coach for more than a season!
Also...
No to Conte. And *f**#ck* no to Sari! You showed a picture of Diserbi [sp?] but *he* hasn't won anything significant. So who then?
I support ACMILAN since i was a little boy.. I'm Moroccan from Belgium 🇧🇪 all my friends support madrid barca psg or manchester city. I'm the only one who doesn't give up on Milan. But what I saw yesterday makes me question if I would allow Pioli and his little monkeys to humiliate me anymore! Yesterday was the worst day in football history for me! I wonder how real Italian Milanistas feel 🤔 🥴🤬😤😡💔😢
Depressing
Today even more.. This is thanks to all the stupid fans who kept believing in Cardinale and Pioli. Congratulations 👏🏽 Milan is done.. we will disappear behind the curtain for the next 5 years.. like Lazio Roma
Even his “Perfect” season Inter fumbled the title by losing their postponed game and gave him the title.
The Chelsea group stage example was a horrible example to use, but Pioli didn't take the club to anything beyond the title and top clubs you get no breaks you have to win or you're sacked.
Pioli is a conundrum to me, if we expect players to improve every year so should the coach. The one consistency as you mentioned is that Pioli just has not been able to make Milan competitive. Even when we won the scudetto it was not an impressive win. It was a scrape through win that Inter lost. Since 2009 we have looked worse than Inter. It’s disgraceful, ppl can say what they want about Maldini but Maldini understood what winning is, he understood what it meant to be rossoneri and he demanded excellence. He was stifled by our financial issues but he should have not been fired. Regardless we cannot live in the past I think Ibra is a great replacement if there was any but we need a new coach and god damn it we need a new midfield and defense
Ok but can you let us know which manager is gonna take Milan forward?
motta, rdz, amorim. all of these are attainable
I think the truth is, the management have a crappy mentality, unlike before maldini was fired.
The squad quality didnt improve, still no depth, and i agree Pioli should go, but unless a top top coach is brought in and quality players are brought in alongside that, im afraid this may not change, the owners dont care, the mentality of the management will always trickle down, and it doesnt help that the idiots running the club have no interest in renewing the clubs top players...Mike is probably being sold, wouldnt be surprised if Theo or Leao get sold too.
But I do agree that overall, Pioli needs to go, hes reached the end of his tether with the club...but if there is no quality coach brought in to replace him, and the squad gets weaker or remains at the same point...legitimate success like Inter is having just won't happen
By replacing Pioli we will have the same broken old bus with a different driver!
Finally Someone Said truth
Gerry cardinale is a burden on this club. He by firing Maldini destroyed the program which led to milans success and they were about to built on it but this Italian-american happened!!
The only thing that saves Pioli iswhere we are in the season, just 6 more games. If this was January he’d be gone. So there’s no doubt this season is the end of his Milan journey.
my coach replacement shortlist:
de Zerbi
Conte
Motta
Ruben Amorin
Xavi
Any other coach feels too much of a gamble... Worst case scenario, get one for 1 season and get Klopp once he comes back!
amazing video that sums up this situation in a perfect way
we need a great tactician who will finally lead the way for those talents that we have and perfect them
someone who will finally bring some life into those players
Milan needs to replace Pioli and 6 of the 11 starters. Milan only has flops from mid-table teams and washed/lazy work rate players. Every single player on Milan is overrated and mid-level at best. We need world-class players not mid-class players who are team players and aren't lazy like half the players on the team right now. Milan never wakes up until the end of 2nd half. Literally every single game. Milan not only doesn't know how to score team goals but have horrible defense. We need a coach that will teach players to "never" cross the ball. Crossing the ball for headers is the only tactic Pioli has and is outdated. Physicality is one of the least important qualities in today's football yet all we do is pick up washed or flops with good physicality. We need players who don't make mistakes while passing and stop this 90s crossing BS hoping to score a goal which always leads to us conceding a goal. All passes from every single player is too obvious and every single team knows all Milan does is cross the ball in to Giroud or use Leao on the wing. Even Leao who is Milan's best player atm loses the ball 9/10 times. Milan can't keep possession 99% of the time even against mid-level teams. I honestly think the problem is bigger than Pioli and their mid-level players. I blame the scouters and recruits for managers and players. They literally build a team for failure thinking this is still the 80s. No strategy, no tactics, no team work. Only physicality and showboat skills. I am a 42 year old Milan fan who has been watching Milan since 1994. Our team has been going down hill since the mid 2000s. It's been over 20 years since then and it's still going down hill. Please replace the board after you replace Pioli and 6 of your 11 starters. This is the only way we can ever win a trophy.
Its not that we need a new tactician. We need a tactician period😂
So now that they officially said that at the end of the season Pioli is being sacked, what do you expect from the executives?
Agreed on all points. Pioli needs to go if we’re going to take the next step. But please, please, do not hint that Sarri, Conte, or De Zerbi are capable of taking that step. There is zero evidence that they have the tactical capabilities to improve this team.
Well, I'd say now it's time to mourn the loss, will think about the future tomorrow
We are still generally a very young and immature team. The hate on pioli is excessive but if we want to reach the next level we need a combination of improved squad (few more key additions) and a top coach. Not sure what “top” coach we could get and it become a very risky !!
The Defence feels the most fragile. I still don't know why play Giroud who is soo much out of form???? I would proudly play Jovic because he has more passing sense and very good at arriving at the ideal position to collect the ball or play the ball to advanced positions!!!!!
Great analysis
Scudetto win was ibrahimovic genius without him on the pitch this team sucks ngl.
Sometimes you got to know when to fold up... Kenny Rogers voice.... It's was a great few years but I believe it's over, it's time for s new head... Cause he's just s top 4 coach....
Fold 'em
Not making excuses for coach, but in my opinion, other than injuries at start, DEFENCE was the biggest weakness. Quality backline & midfielders were/are really needed to compete for trophies. Other than Tjders,Theo & Timori you are not going to win championships with the rest. Other than defend, you need solid midfielders & a center back that can move the ball forward. Top teams win close games; 1 goal, like the one Roma scored in the first game, makes a huge difference. Actually, their goals came on 2nd efforts with ACM defense picking their nose. Poor marking & not quick enough. DEFENCE!
Isn’t pioli the reason we have such high expectations now? Ironic how football goes. I’ll always hold him in high regard for helping us get out of a decade of darkness but I’m worried the replacement will only take us backwards.
I have been a Pioli defender but it's time now.
Somehow we have musah playing higher up the pitch than leao that should NEVER happen
When you are 1 man up and play out wide to just lob the ball into the Roma box against that Roman defence excellent in the air just shows the team was tactically lost! That was probably the worst 90 mins of football ever played!
If pioli is going there has to be a real analysis of who can replace him and improve upon his record whilst remaining within the confines of the sporting methods of the club. Without that getting rid of pioli is shortsighted and completely discounts the guttless attitude from some of the players. It really hasn't been that long from the banter era to act based on emotions rather than a clear analysis.
Pioli's way of making his players work on the field shows more individual efforts but no team spirit. I often wonder how a team doesn't have a sync in the game. Let's say when Theo runs with ball or Rafa or Ruben then or Pulisic, the fan expects them to score. But I don't get it why not the team function in a way where they offer more constructive passing. Musah is so good with the ball yet the player does not pass in the key moments and does not create the game. Why this is the slowest in passing of all Serie A? Its because Pioli wants his team to show their individual skills more than the team efforts. Its just disappointing
Pioli helped us, to get out of draught. Winning a scudetto
With a team that wasn't great. He's a good coach. If we lose him to anyone other than Conte we will regret it!
@@marcuspierantozzi honestly I agree piolo helped us win a scudetto....but let's face it we are literally 7 time UCL champions and put us against a huge team we will crumble with kikes of bayern real or man city ...but who do you think should manage ac milan after pioli
Spot on!
All for it 🤚🏻
I have been ok with Serie A and CL performance this season and think standards have been too high at times, also given the huge turnover of players. Now EL has been much greater fuck up and unlike the other two competitions I could understand sacking Pioli over them.
To play a bit of devil´s advocate it has to be said that Klopp´s Liverpool, a stronger team, crashed out against Atalanta, a weaker team. This is not a justification but gives a bit of perspective, but again this would be a just reason to fire him unlike chasing an Inter which only lost one match so far.
We flip coaches in the tie with Roma, and we win. That says it all. Roma organized to beat THIS MILAN team the way Pioli would insist on playing, and Pioli was Pioli. I like him. Good coach, but just not good enough.
Easiest thing to do is to blame the coach. The coach has his own faults and limitations and it is easy to highlight all the arguments in the world to make him look the worst but big part of the problem is the management and the ownership and changing the coach will be a smokescreen. After winning the scudetto the mercato budget for 2 years was almost non existent and last year they fired Maldini and decided to overhaul the squad and everyone celebrated it. The winning mentality first and foremost comes from management and ownership. We don't have that I think in the next couple of years we will get rid of Leao, Theo and Maingan and will replace with Noah Chukwezi and Pulicic. The management wants a team that makes top four and some quarter finals finish in UCL. The reason why we are here is because of 3 bad mercatos after the title win. This mercato is critical this year if we continue as we are brace for another banter era. and yes buying 10 players isn't a good mercato. For example this year we don't have balance in the team. The defensive line isn't the problem the midfielder are the problem. We are not City or Barcelona to build a team on technical players and defend using possession......
Owners need to change, when they kicked Maldini, it was over for this club. No one can save this, as it is not a club, it is a franchise, product, mcDonalds. This is just the consequence of owners' policy and behavior. You can change the coach all you want, that is not where we rot.
Looks Pioli on fire in the beginning became Pioli on fired in the end.. Pioli is good but we need manager good in Europe competition too. And pioli form on the league today I don't have complain
Plus Pioli's arrogance skyrocketed after winning the scudetto, always deflecting accountability of his tactical failures, blaming refs and players. At the end of the day is clear that Pioli is out at the end of the season, last interview Furlani made at Dazn is pretty much telling us that, just let him finish the season due to respect and see ya
Even the scudetto, more than us winning it I would say the Inter lost it as they lost some stupid games
He should go i agree, but who replaces him, who can guarantee top4 with profile of players we have and more importantly we DON'T have? I don't trust conte with this one. Who can we get so we reach that NEW higher level. I hope we don't rush things.
Forza Milan 🔴⚫
Fans can be so ungrateful, especially Milan fans. Pioli is one of the best coaches Milan has had. Facts. Nothing can be taken away from this guy and what he did. Did his cycle end? Apparently. He can't get an average team to give 100% anymore, but that is a normal thing in football, even Anceotti's cycle ended so that's that. Battering him is so ungrateful and classless for a man who gave so much with an average team at best in recent years. His tactics and subs were more times the reason for getting points as compared to the other way around. Everybody talking about Conte should consider the fact that with Conte we will play anti football (Juventus style) and i certainly don't want to see that dead football style in Milan, another thing is that with Conte Leao and his laid back attitude will be benched for most games, so there's that.
we need a top coach like conte klopp and top players forzzza milan...
Cup - failed against inferior opposition in an early round (again) - unacceptable
Champions League - failed to qualify from group - barely acceptable, only due to strong group
Europa League - failed against inferior opposition, playing terribly in both legs - unacceptable
Serie A - will hand Scudetto (and 2nd star) to Inter in the next match - disgrace
These results are acceptable at a club like Fiorentina, where Pioli belongs, not at 7x CL and 19x Scudetto champions AC MILAN.
Get Motta and youll see. Tonali left they bought Loftus, Musa and Tijani instead of getting a good Centre Back. So dumb decision from Furlani.
The writing is on the wall, isn't it. On last year's performance, I think you are a little bit unfair. Chelsea by that time of the season were not the disaster they would become and Napoli were beaten 4-0 in the league just before the UCL matches. I wouldn't minimise that achievement, the way you did.
Imo, this was the first part of the test. Getting at least to the UEL final was a must for Padre Pioli. The other match is the derby. But honestly this situation just looks too much like the end of a chapter and you're right: He's not going to be that guy (neither will Conte, Sarri or de Zerbi, these three are overrated). Let's not drag this over another season. It's time.
Thank you Stefano, you will be remembered as the one who got us out of the gutter and out us on the right track, even getting us a title to level with inter. That is and forever will be the story and we will love you for it.
Kush your’ve been all over the place with your pioli stance come with some consistency bro. One minute keep him fire him the next.
He goes with whichever he thinks will give him the most views. Oops I just gave away his secret…
Sick of us losin against top 4ish teams. We’re gonna get destroyed by Inter and hand them the title #pioliout Please I hope we can get DeZerbi🙏🏽🙏🏽
Good coaches get average players to perform above their means.. look at what Motta and Gasperini are doing at their clubs.. Leao under Gasperini would've been a B'dor winner
the players need to take a serious look at themselves. This squad is not good. It has no leaders. Leao and Theo are not leaders. period. This team is not as good as Milan fans think.
I thank Pioli for what he did, but it’s time for a new coach.
Pioli's advantage: He shuffles formation every match that he could, by accident, come up with a winning plan that can make Milan formidable for a time.
Piloi's disadvantage: He shuffles formation every match that he could, by accident, come up with a LOSING plan that can make Milan formidable...IN LOSING for a time.
Said it before and I will say it again. In the history books, this era will be looked at as Milan being insecure psychologically. When Milan have strength and desire mentally that team becomes unstoppable. But when the same team gets distracted mentally then any average team will wipe the floor with Milan. Enough that even seasoned players will look like they never played football before. That becomes irritating to watch as the years go by. How long will Pioli watch his team get mentally weakened? Does he not have a plan to shake them up for an entire season? Does he put the fear of God in them and they just walk into the pitch like scared puppies? Losing matches when they are insecure mentally is just unbearable. Might as well stare at a wall that would be more productive.
Now because of this mess they will come on top against Inter in the next derby and expect us to be like "at least we beaten this year's champion....RIGHT?" not knowing that we are wondering "where was this spirit months ago?"
I’ve been giving Pioli a lot of credit for getting the team to continue accumulating points in the league and winning against PSG and Newcastle despite the horrifying injury situation at the club. But I still cannot believe the moronic tactics he employed now that his squad is approaching full strength against Roma. Was completely outcoached by what I consider to be a novice coach. I finally admit his time is up. He does need to go.
Who would you replace pioli with?
I really want to see KLOPPP at milan.... he has a way with young players and brings out pretty good results from them....given his time with liverpool is over I think milan should maybe approach him. But milan please sign a CF, RB, CB AND A PLAYER WHO DID THE ROLE OF TONALI.. OR BRING THE BOY HOME..
shouldve been fired after the 5 -2 defeat to sassuolo.....
I appreciate everything Pioli has done for us, but now it's time get a better coach who can help us play strong against big teams. If Slavia Prague didn't get the 2 reds, they would have been the victors for sure
Pioli's time at Milan is over. If we can't get Thiago Motta who is most likely going to Juventus, then we should get Julen Lopetegui instead. He may not have a lot of experience and it could be like a Rudi Garcia with Napoli type of move which could be risky. His tactics aren't so far fetched and could work with the current Milan squad. But the question is, is he good enough for AC Milan? #forzamilan
I wish nothing but the worst to Cardinale. I absolutely mean that. Our downfall begins with him. Oh and tell your boy Rocco how does he feel after being humiliated by inter today. Was Maldini still the problem?
I think its time to stop praising Pioli too much in the next matches. Whatever the results are, even if they beat Juve 5-0, will not change our take about him.
Yes they could probably beat Juve 5-0, but will repeat another loss from another matches with different teams. Its like a loop
I'm against Conte because his style of play and against Sarri because he's a loser. Name of De Zerbi sounds much interesting, although he didn't managed any serious club in his career.
